Patient sues for $3 5m claiming neglect at Rocky Hospital

Premium Content Subscriber only A former inpatient of Rockhampton Hospital is suing the health service for $3.5 million claiming negligence, after he sustained a nerve injury that he says has left him with a permanent foot drop. Leon Ward, now 39, of Biloela, was admitted as a patient at Rockhampton Hospital in November 2017 for pneumonia. He was discharged on December 29, 2017, and during his admission he was bed-bound for most of the time. Mr Ward alleges he developed a nerve injury which was caused by the compression of the right sciatic nerve.
